Answer:

CT = 22

Explanation:

J is the midpoint of CT, so the two parts made by placing J are congruent.

CJ = 3x + 8

JT = 6x + 5

Our equation would be:

3x + 8 = 6x + 5

8 - 5 = 6x - 3x

3 = 3x

1 = x

Now, we just plug in x as 1:

3 + 8 = 11

6 + 5 = 11

11 + 11 = 22

So:

CT = 22

Hope this helps!
